It's a Beautiful Day

Wow wow wow! We had a great time on Saturday didn't we?Mamma Mia was such fun - I seriously loved singing along -and especially Dancing Queen at the end, when all us girls were up and dancing! So, thanks for coming along, for bringing your friends and for singing along! Well done too to those brave girls who sang and danced on the stage - and not a drop of alcohol was needed! Great to see women of all ages together just enjoying each others company and having fun together. Thanks too to all those involved in the planning and behind the scenes - we couldn't have done it without you!

Everyone who came to Mamma Mia took away an invitation to Real - the Unique Conference on 3rd July. The beautiful invites are available at the Kerith reception - I'll be handing them out to women at Church on Sunday too. Thanks to the women who have encouraged us greatly by registering already :) It's £20 if you register before May 3rd. So let's get talking about it - inviting others - and registering!

Lastly, just a reminder that today's the final day for completing the Reveal survey. If (mmm...like me!) you still haven't got round to doing it, then please find some time today . So whether you are "part of the furniture" at Kerith, if you call it your home, or if you've just started coming, your voice and opinion is needed! Thanks :) You can take part in the survey by following this linkfrom the Kerith website.

I'm delighted to welcome Esther Ross-Watson to my Blog today! She is a dearly loved member of our Kerith family. She and her late husband Michael served as missionaries for many years. Esther bravely made the decision to travel again, and she has recently returned from Indonesia. Here's her story: Whilst Michael was on his last days on earth in August
2017 he received a request from the Island of Madura, Indonesia asking us to
return to the town of Pamekasen, Madura, Indonesia where we had begun our
Missions work in July 1973 exactly one year after we were married. They were keen
to have us see what God had been doing in the years since we’d moved on and we
excitedly said ‘Yes’ we will come!Obviously that had to go on hold for a while because I didn’t feel I
could, or even wanted to go alone!Anyway around March/April time 2018, I begun to feel a
gentle nudging of the Holy Spirit urging me to think some more about it! It was
like a feeling of wanting to know for myself what had …

I popped into town this morning (as an aside, anyone else still incredulous that "new Bracknell / The Lexicon is so great and that it's really here to stay?!) Anyhow, I popped into town for a quick wander and bought 3 "essentials" I'd run out of, so I thought I'd share them with you - and of course I'd love to hear about your 3 recent essential purchases.

1 Contact lense solutionI've worn glasses since Secondary school, and contact lenses since I left Uni. Gas permeables - great for me - slightly perilous in swimming pools / the sea / other people's sinks (£80 to replace). They work for me - and so a couple of bottles of solution each month keep me going.I ran out a couple of days ago, so it was £4.70 well spent for clean lenses and clear eyesight.

2. "Buffet" by The OrdinaryThis was a new one for me, a present I received last Christmas. I LOVE it and can't recommend i…

I love a podcast!Podcasts get me through situations where time might drag, or perhaps I've got some time to myself - I'm think a bike work-out at the Gym; a long car journey; or food for my mind and soul whilst I'm cooking.

I've just got back from holiday, and having missed a couple of Sundays, I have caught up with Kerith podcasts, listening to three outstanding preaches from Ben Pocock and Ben Oliver in Bracknell; and Heather Pocock in Sandhurst - I found myself wanting to join in with a few loud "amens" this morning at the gym!

What about you? Let me know when and where do you listen to podcasts?

Our guest contributor today is the wonderful Paula Ridgway - with her large heart , great enthusiasm and infectious faith, she is such a huge blessing to many at Kerith. Over to Paula for her encouragement to simply gather a few friends, to listen to a podcast together and then talk about it and see what God is saying.

I lead the charge for REAL, our annual women's conference; and through that, God has opened doors for me to travel to eastern Europe, supporting other female leaders as they gather women. It's not something I ever thought I'd do, but it's an exciting adventure I'm grateful to God for.
